a christmas poem and how to wear a statement necklace

Every Tuesday until Christmas 5-8pm

Caledon East studio shopping hours

T'was 44 days before Christmas, when all through the town, 

every person was thinking, about what to do now?

The people were thinking, about their gifts with care, 

should they buy local, and feel all prepared? 

The jewellery was made all pretty in different shades, 

while custom pieces were still being handmade. 

The studio shopping hours were ready to go,

5-8pm every Tuesday in Caledon East for show. 

When out of the blue you thought ah yes,

I want to avoid the congested mall crowds and all of the jest,

Shopping hours I shall head to in a flash, 

Not a moment to lose, I must dash!

You're thinking so hard about what to give and receive, 

ah-ha that's easy, one of a kind gift it will be. 

Here's a way to wear the statement necklaces that are so hot this season. Try it with a jean collared shirt, a textured neutral skirt (is a dress underneath) and a knit pullover sweater with this snakes and ladders statement necklace hand designed by me. You can view it in my shop. Click Here.

Happy New Years

Hello Bloggettes! 

I hope your holidays were amazing. Mine were jammed packed with engagement rings, Christmas tree cutting, presents, dog chasing, nephew playing! I'm certainly tired from the holidays, but no rest for me! I'm back doing yoga. Gosh I am RUSTY when I went today. Aches, and groins, and pops, and cracks.

More exciting news I applied for the London Bridal show last fall and I got in! Next weekend, I'll be show casing my new Naomi Moore Colleciton at the show for all the future Bride's to be! 

How were your holidays? I've been missing so much on my blogs. I just caught up with one of my blogger girls and she got engaged over the holidays! How exciting!

How was your Christmas and New years? 

Matt gave Tina (Tristan's sister) an engagement ring!

how to wear pants

What I wore:

Sweater: F21 

Hair scarf: thrifted

Vest: Vintage

Pants: F21

Jewellery: Hattitude jewellery

I am in love with these pants. It feels very strange wearing pants. I normally tend to stick to skirts and dresses...but these pants were too perfect to pass up. I love them. The floral pattern is right up my alley, and they're stretchy! (so I can wear long underwear underneath them) I think it's important if you're going to wear pants to either have them a. high waisted, or b. with a little bit of pattern on them or c. wear them with a vest. 

How do you wear your pants? 

I've been busy getting ready for my jewellery show this Sunday December 9th from 2-5pm. 

Check out some of the pieces online and drop by Sunday for some gift wrapped presents that are one of a kind.

Follow me on Facebook as I update my shop, and post tidbits about life. 

How have your lives been? I promise in the new year when Hattitude settles back down, I'll catch up on the blogosphere. 

Do you guys have any plans for Christmas? I really wish I was scooting down to Barbados. Tell me your plans!

sick, ick....st. nick?

Here are some of the latest items being added to the online shop this week. Thanks again to all my beautiful customers who came to my studio shopping hours Monday and Tuesday evening. You guys are magical! I'm starting new Christmas shopping hours. Every Tuesday from now until Christmas the studio will be open from 5-8pm. Complimentary gift wrapping is a bonus! 

 Outfit posts are being put on the back burner probably until next week. I am sitting in slouchy pj's, comfy knit sweaters, and polka dot undies. Can you guess it? I am sick with a horrible sore throat. Enjoy some of my latest creations. Christmas and St. Nick are coming soon and now Hattitude is offering Gift Certificates in an monetary amount. Happy days! Time to get Hattified.

I hope you are all healthy and smiling. Have a great week.

I wore this dress to the SHARE dinner and dance function. It's a handmade dress that I picked up at a thrift store. I've been taking a sewing class so of course I've been looking over all the hems, and stitches and seeing how it was all constructed together. The coat is from another vintage store. The scarf is a nice autumn leaf print scarf from my mom's closet. 

The charity event we went to on Saturday was for the SHARE foundation which helps farmers in third world countries in sending them farming aid. My grandfather was one of the founders. It's a really great organization, doing a lot of good for a lot of people in different parts of South America. I was proud we all went and had a 'cousins' table.

Tomorrow and Tuesday are my studio shop hours. Come on by the studio in Caledon from 5-8pm if you want to get Hattified to beat the November blahs.
